2016 YUE GUANG BAI (white Pu erh)
China - NAN NUO Shan mountain, Xishuangbanna county, Yunnan province
We are delighted to offer you one of China's most loved teas. It is a most unusual, unique, traditional Yunnan Pu erh tea.
YUE GUAND BAI literally means Moonlight tea and unlike other teas It is withered in the night under moonlight instead of during the day under direct sunlight. It is withered slightly then dried with warm air tunneled through the leaves until they are dry. It does not undergo the steaming process.
Whole wild leaves are picked from ancient, 100 year old trees, in a pesticide-free forest at altitudes of 800 meters in Gu Niang Zhai village (Girls Cottage village) on NAN NUO Shan Mountain. This is a white Pu erh tea that is aged naturally and shares a taste like white tea when it is young but over time will develop into something more like a red tea. The leaves were harvested in 2016, aged naturally and pressed in 2018.
White tea has the highest level of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and is recognised by many medical institutions for its anti-cancer health benefits. It is used in traditional Chinese medicine to cool body heat and flush out toxins.
The resulting tea has a pure flavour, a soft, creamy taste and a mesmerising fragrance.
